I'm looking for a good tutorial on how AmiTCP is built / e.g. how TCP/IP networking on the Amiga works. I have some basic knowledge on Amiga OS internals but no view on the "big picture".
To be more precise,
- Is the network card (NIC) attached to the OS by a "*.device"? Is that all there is needed to be able to use a card from the OS? Or are additional libraries needed?
- Is AmiTCP or any competing TCP/IP solution available as a single "*.library" or several libraries? How are there tied to the device?
Any pointers/guides/explanations/tutorials greatly appreciated!
edit: I'm looking for info on Amiga OS <= 3.9
